TEXAS ASSOCIATION of PROFESSIONAL GEOSCIENTISTS (TAPG) MEMBERS AND NON-MEMBERS

As you may already know, there has been a proposal made THIS LEGISLATIVE SESSION to place the Texas Board of Professional Geoscientists (TBPG) into suspension for two years.  What this means to the Professional Geoscientist community is presently unclear at this time.  TAPG is currently monitoring the situation and attending meetings concerning the Texas Board of Professional Geoscientists (TBPG) and will be updating you as soon as we get more information.  By any standard…long or short term… this is a clear threat to your licensure or promises to be if the TBPG gets dissolved or placed under an umbrella Board system which does not care or understand Geoscientist issues and worse yet.. legislate matters important to PG’s.

What we do need right now is for non-members to join TAPG or members to recruit new members immediately.  TAPG is THE association with your PG licensure in mind year round.  We are facing a serious threat.  We ask that you support the association supporting your profession.
